Clarion Collection Carmel Oaks Inn, Carmel

Superb

A “must-stay” place for beach...

Liked: Very roomy, loved the layout of the queen suite. The location is ideal, the beach is a straight shot down, took just a. few minutes to get there. The shopping centers and many cafe’s are a walkable distance from the rooms.
Disliked: The heater took a bit longer than expected to heat up the room, but didn’t mind it too much.

Passable

Liked: The beds were so comfortable and great sheets (except they didn't stay on well.)
Disliked: There was no housekeeping the first day and there were only a couple other people staying in the hotel! Our trash was overflowing, had to ask for new towels. The stairs going up to the room had ripped carpet, the blinds in our room were broken, and the dead bolt was very hard to turn. Worst of all, NO LIGHTS WERE ON OUTSIDE DURING THE NIGHT! VERY DANGEROUS! We left at 6:30 am and had to use our phone flashlights to see our way down steps and to the car. Staff was nice, but didn't seem concerned about any of this.

It was totaly okay for...

Liked: the location was really good and they deliver you breakfast in a basket at 8:30 which was really nice. the staff was friendly. the room was allright.
Disliked: I found hair in my bed that weren’t mine and also on some of the bathroom towels. Also they had an ice machine but no water dispencer.

Great location, small size bed.

Liked: The property is peaceful, tidy, and at a perfect location. Plenty of parking. Breakfast was placed outside and was fine.
Disliked: Instead of being a queen or king, the bed was double sized for two people. It was uncomfortable and rather small for two people.

Very good

Liked: Didn't ever received hotel invoice. Had to leave early in the morning and they had no one in the office until 8:30 A.M.
Disliked: The unknown for sure what your paying for. Everything else was fine.
